Staten Island Shakespearean Theatre Company Presents: THE TEMPEST By William Shakespeare Shakespeare’s tale of magic, love, and retribution gets an enchanting, “high fantasy” makeover in this new adaptation. Prospero, a powerful sorceress, sets a plan in motion twelve years in the making, wrecking a royal ship upon the shores of her island and beginning her game of “chess”. The players: the ruler of Naples and her daughter; Prospero’s conniving sister; punch-drunk nobles; two spirits of nature; and even her own child, Miranda. The goal: to set right the wrongs of the past in hopes of giving her daughter a brighter future. In a thrilling re-exploration of the text, with sorcery and motherhood at its core, this production utilizes both the original prose and poetry, as well as dance and movement, to bring this classic faerie tale to life. May 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, 19 8:00pm (Sunday matinees at 2:00pm) Staten Island Playhouse at Empire Outlets 55 Richmond Terrace Staten Island, NY 10301, Level 3 (SI Playhouse LOGO) GENERAL ADMISSION: $30, STUDENTS & SENIORS: $27, MEMBERS $25 Purchase tickets online by visiting: sishakespeare.org Featuring: Ever Chavez Nicole Hardson-Hurley John Paul Harkins Abby McNulty Regina Paleau Dylan Carrter Redshaw Caroline Russell Rina Sklar Meredith Sladek Alejandria Solis Christine Vapsva Director: J.
